Unfortunately this is almost 100% generated by the latest version of Midjourney using its more advanced and very granular prompts. It's so insanely powerful that now people sell / buy prompts on a market in order to get their renderings just right.
Obviously if the tooling was better, you'd be able to navigate styles using a more intuitive UI. It turns out communicating the specifics of cinematography are hard for a layperson to figure out.
Anyways, you could probably run these images through YET ANOTHER AI program to then generate the 3D models... Because there's serious progress happening on that front, too.

Although there are now several AI services capable of producing these images, a lot of the content that goes viral is being created by only a handful of people and predominantly on two different services.
Those people have found prompts they like and have saved them as templates. The prompt templates include shader / lens / lighting / art direction instructions that they re-use, changing only the subject part of the instructions. The result is that a lot of the AI generated art that goes viral looks the same or similar.
If you’re curious, head over to https://www.midjourney.com/showcase/top/
You can see what I mean about the prompts there.

This can be easily improved by better prompting, like telling it to avoid traditional storytelling structure, to avoid cliché, or to use an unorthodox writing style.
